Is it normal for a newborn to have bowel movements four times a day?
A baby has four loose yellow stools a day, doesn’t want to eat, and doesn’t have a cough, cold, or fever. The baby seems uncomfortable only because of the frequent bowel movements and no unpleasant odor. By the way, the baby fell a few days ago and vomited six times, but the brain CT showed nothing. Could the diarrhea be related to the fall? I took the child to the doctor, and the doctor said it was intestinal disorder. I gave the baby the probiotic medicine we always have at home, and after one day, the baby had one normal bowel movement. But somehow today, although the baby’s stools are not loose, he has had three bowel movements in the morning. Should we continue to give him this medicine? What’s wrong with the baby? What disease has he caught? It’s urgent as there’s no fever or cold.
